Point Loma High, San Diego
NaNoWriMo - National Novel Writing Month, worldwide, young writers program comes w/curriculum
Start- last 2 weeks of Oct., help w/plot, characters, Nov. 1st writing starts
COLLABORATVE!!! Could be for lower grades, depnding on word count.
Entire 9th gr--400 students, in a month
Wordcount for kids, 30,000 is about 1,000 per day--ended up 3,000- 15,000
Parly collab, mostly communal, all working on samething - same basic issues - discussions with "language" happening, helping others
Partners have to discuss work and talk about everything--come to agreements, etc...Partner work is challenging, and can use
Rest of the year kids thought about writing like writers.

Production/Distribution of Writing--http://goo.gl/C51PR
Writing Response Goups - JenniferRoberts
Production, distribution and also develop/strengthen writing - About developing a HABIT or behavior
organiztn, style, purpose, audience, planng, editing
WRITING RESPONSE GROUPS - not writing collaboratively, but supportively
Want them to think about their audience
*This allows feedback from multiple peers and will improve writing
Stable writing groups, share a folder in Googledocs,
Share draft w/ group
take turns reading, read outloud, peers discuss
Peers give feedback, writers need to listen to peer voices
SELF-efficacy, empathy, revision increases

Journalpuiblisers - ex ISTE
Charles Darwin ex:
Infomine: databases, eJournals, eBooks
Complete Planet - 70,000 searchable databases
